Microsoft is watching 🫪

I don't mean to come across as paranoid, but it's hard not to find Microsoft's telemetry practices unusual. The company gathers extensive information about users, including web browsing habits and gaming activity, and can potentially associate that data with social media profiles. Microsoft says this information is collected to enhance the overall Windows user experience, but the scope of the data collection raises understandable questions about privacy.

Looking for a virtual gamepad app that actually works well on Linux (Fedora)

Hey all, I'm on Fedora 44 (HP Victus 15, Ryzen 5 5600H, RX 6500M) and trying to find a solid virtual gamepad solution — something that lets my phone act as a controller for my PC over Wi-Fi.

I tried Monet PC but couldn't get it running properly — kept running into issues and never got a stable connection/input mapping going.

I'm looking for something with low latency and decent button/analog stick support for playing games on my PC. Has anyone found an app that actually works well on Linux?

Wondering how to configure Linux and Windows on new laptop.

https://preview.redd.it/1lv4z4j87eah1.png?width=482&format=png&auto=webp&s=9872d537854dbf86c95e20d146a2934baa06f26e

New laptop has a 512gb ssd which has Windows. To the second slot I can put a 128gb drive that I have. I want to main Linux but still keep Windows for a few games or so. I thought I'd install Linux on the small drive and partition the main drive for storage. But since my 128gb drive is smol and lower specced I don't want to miss out. So I guess I'll have to wipe and install Linux on the main drive and windows on the 128gb drive? Thanks :)

Chat suggest me a linux distro suitable for my pc.

Lately I have been using archcraft , which has been a perfect one for my pc and stable but it got unstable over time and i had to move to garuda xfce , but since both are same edition , garuda heats a lot and is not suitable for work . so i want to try a new distro .

I have also tried , ubuntu , debian , deepin , void , mint ,elementary os , antix, lubuntu, fedora , parrot and kali over the years .

My aim is to have a beutiful lookable distro which is not heavy and suitable for my pc specs .

Here are the specs :

*CPU : AMD ATHLON 3050U(DUAL CORE)

RAM:4GB(3.3 Usable rest occupied by igpu)

storage:1tb hdd

I hope to have some good recommendations from you . Thanks
